Italy: Day 2 - Tour of Rome

Well - since we still did not have any luggage - our friends that we were staying with loaned us clothing and necessary items we needed for the next day. We scheduled a tour to Rome which left from the base about 10 KM away from where we were staying. We were able to get up easily enough as we were still not adjusted to Italy time. We met the bus with no problem - it was still dark. The bus did not go as fast as I would have liked - and it took close to 3 hours to get to Rome.
In Rome - we saw the Coliseum, the Trevi fountain and drove around and saw lots of neat sights. I took lots of pictures. (Yes - I did have all of my camera gear with me - that did not get lost - I carried it on the plane).
Needless to say - at the end of the day - we were pretty tired. I think that the boys both slept on the bus ride from Rome to Naples.
Here are some of my favorite pictures that I took that day:



I loved these guys. They knew enough English to have a good time. They really wanted people to dress up with all the gear - take a picture - then give them 5 Euro. I just took the pictures anyway.

Even though we were in Roma in October - it was still really crowded. I have cropped out most of the people from in front of the fountain - but the square was completely filled with people.
